Reading Diary B: Nivedita's Kali the Mother

Today I finished reading Nivedita's Kali the Mother. There was a lot more substance in the last section than there was in the first, and I think I'll have a lot of material to pull from in describing Kali as a character. I really liked the passage at the end where she talks in first-person, and the poem in the very last section was a very neat change in style from the rest of the text. There weren't any clear stories or tales that I could adapt, so maybe I'll just use the characteristics of Kali and make a new story about her, or insert her into another story.
